Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She gives some great advice.

Reviewed January 2020

Chyrese has been very helpful to me. I’ve been dealing with some recent traumas in my life which have caused me extreme anxiety, stress & fears. She had helped me talk about things, and listened. She’s a really good listener. She is focused on my goals to help me find ways to cope and heal. I had worked with a few therapists prior to Chyrese that weren’t a great fit, finding a therapist that fits who you are looking for makes a world of difference. I’m so happy to have Chyrese in my corner as I grow, heal and change.
